From the UK Sun:
'DANGEROUS INFECTION' Russian biological warfare troops rushed to Arctic after outbreak of lethal anthrax hospitalises 40
Biological warfare troops have been rushed to the Russian Arctic amid growing concerns over a serious anthrax outbreak.
A total of 40 people – more than half of them children – are now hospitalised amid fears they may have contracted the deadly infection.
This follows the death of 1,200 reindeer suspected of contracting the disease after a contaminated corpse – buried at least 70 years ago – thawed because of a heatwave in the Yamal peninsula in northern Siberia.
Someone is doing something they should not be doing:
The concern follows an outbreak of the Bubonic Plague in the Altai Mountains in southern Siberia earlier this month.
Especially nasty as if it encounters hard conditions, it will encapsulate itself and go dormant until conditions are favorable again. As you can read in the third paragraph, 70 years is not uncommon.
